The Pioneer Woman Cooks

Recipes From An Accidental Country Girl

In her folksy, wonderfully engaging voice, Drummond shares how she learned to cope with the isolation and peculiarities of an Oklahoman ranch life, from chasing beavers out of the pond and saddling horses, to cooking for a man who believes the sun rises and sets in a steak and baked potato. Includes delicious recipes such as cowboy calzones, pioneer woman's ribeye steaks, cheese grits, fresh blackberry cobbler, pico de gallo, and Iny's prune cake.

Great cookbook. Great recipes, gorgeous pictures, and a story about living on a ranch with her drop dead good looking husband. (and 3 gorgeous children)... Definitely going to get one as a Christmas present for my daughter .

An absolutely wonderful cookbook, and a fun read. I'll be buying this one for sure.

Love, Love, Love it! Very well detailed instructions complete with pictures. I love that she has a picture for every recipe the fact that she has step by step pictures is a bonus. I like to see what it is supposed to look like. That is how you get me and my family interested in a recipe, we eat with our eyes if it looks good there is a good chance it might taste that good too. Hopefully I will get this book for Mother's Day. *crossing fingers*

This is a very fun cookbook and slice of life from The Pioneer Woman. Those familiar with her blog will likely recognize most of the recipes and photos. I love that every recipe contains a number of photos. I detest cookbooks without photos.

Ree Drummond's writing is lively and entertaining and this book is worth getting.
